Art Journal Junkie October 2022 - Day 10

Day 10 of 31 days of Art Journaling with Art Journal Junkie Facebook Group!

So we have 3 colours: Blue, Grey and Navy

An Affirmation Quote: Flow with your Creative Spirit

An element: Birds

I was short on time yesterday but I did manage to get this page done and posted on the facegroup page last night. I just forgot to blog it!

Anyway, because I was short on time, I decide to actually use some the ephemera from my September Subscription box from Your Creative Studio. This is my first box with them and I love it!

I also fussy cut my fantastic bird from a Daphne's Diary postcard.

I used some Distress Oxide Ink Refill for my splatters.

I really enjoyed creating this page and it's been something I have wanted to do for awhile now so I am glad I did it! 

Until next time, keep chasing white unicorns!

Art Journal Junkie October 2022 - Day 2

Day 2 of 31 days of Art Journaling with Art Journal Junkie Facebook Group!

So we have 3 colours: Orange, Pink and Yellow.

An Affirmation Quote: Ny Creativity is Endless

An element: Circles

I used Art by Marlene acrylic paints along with black and white.

Lol, must say it was a bit of a hot mess, but I kept on going!

I used a Finnabair stencil I have, only one I own which was a retreat prize, with black to try draw the eye away from the brightness! Then one of my circle stencils that I have no idea who's it is but I love it, with white to again tone it down.

I used one of my Art by Marlene stamp sets (circles) on a book page and then fussy cut. I also used a page from one of my Daphne's Dairy magazines and punch some larger circles out.

Once I had adhered these on my page, I used my Life of Colour Paint pens to pen my Affirmation and also add colour to the circles.

Can't say I am totally happy with it, but I can say I learnt a few things and can only get better by doing.

Until next time, keep chasing white unicorns!

It's all about you!

This month's Sparkles Monthly Challenges #156 is Mushroom's and other Fungi.

This month I made an adorable Gift Tag!

Goodness, how stinkin' cute is that cup with the Mushroom in it!

I was lucky enough to grab this year's 2022 Daphne's Diary on clearance at my Newsagent's and knew this was just perfect for this month's challenge. I bought it purely to cut up as it has sooo many great images in it that I can use.

I picked a black tag from my stash to make a gift tag with.

I fussy cut my image and then set it aside to create my background on my tag.

I decided to use my Rose Revival stencil (for the first time) by Colour Blast with some Distress Oxide inks. I can't tell you how beautiful this turned out in real life, and why have I not used it before!

I adhered my cup and then also used one of my sayings from a Uniquely Creative cut-apart in my stash.

I look forward to seeing your take on the theme.

Until next time, keep chasing white unicorns!
